Fair Value Measurements |
13. | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS:
The Company uses a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company held certain assets that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These included investments held in conjunction with the Company’s non-qualified contributory deferred compensation plan. These investments consist of mutual funds traded in an active market. The Company determined the fair value of these mutual funds based on the net asset value per unit of the funds or the portfolio, which is based upon quoted market prices in an active market. Therefore, the Company has categorized these investments as Level 1. The Company has consistently applied the above valuation techniques in all periods presented and believes it has obtained the most accurate information available for each type of instrument. The Company had no liabilities required to be measured at fair value at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The Company’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, were as follows (in thousands):
|  | September 30, 2016 |  |  | Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) |  |  | Observable Inputs (Level 2) |  |  | Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) |
Deferred compensation plan investments |  | $ | 21,028 |  |  | $ | 21,028 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |
Total assets measured at fair value |  | $ | 21,028 |  |  | $ | 21,028 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |
|  | December 31, 2015 |  |  | Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) |  |  | Observable Inputs (Level 2) |  |  | Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) |
Deferred compensation plan investments |  | $ | 19,289 |  |  | $ | 19,289 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |
Total assets measured at fair value |  | $ | 19,289 |  |  | $ | 19,289 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |
The remainder of the assets and liabilities held by the Company at September 30, 2016 are not required to be measured at fair value. The carrying value of certain of these assets and liabilities do not approximate fair value, as described below. As further discussed in Note 6 and in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, in connection with the development of Gaylord National, the Company received two bonds (“Series A Bond” and “Series B Bond”) from Prince George’s County, Maryland which had aggregate carrying values of $81.1 million and $69.4 million, respectively, at September 30, 2016. The maturity dates of the Series A Bond and the Series B Bond are July 1, 2034 and September 1, 2037, respectively. Based upon current market interest rates of notes receivable with comparable market ratings and current expectations about the timing of debt service payments under the notes, which the Company considers as Level 3, the fair value of the Series A Bond, which has the senior claim to the cash flows supporting these bonds, approximated carrying value at September 30, 2016 and the fair value of the Series B Bond was approximately $62 million at September 30, 2016. While the fair value of the Series B Bond decreased to less than its carrying value during 2011 due to a change in the timing of the debt service payments, the Company has the intent and ability to hold this bond to maturity and expects to receive all debt service payments due under the note. Therefore, the Company does not consider the Series B Bond to be other than temporarily impaired at September 30, 2016. The carrying amount of short-term financial instruments held by the Company (cash, short-term investments, trade receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities) approximates fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments. The concentration of credit risk on trade receivables is minimized by the large and diverse nature of the Company’s customer base.
